Answer 1

yeah, it's easy to wear yourself out this late in pregnancy. just take frequent breaks, and stay hydrated.

Answer 2

the baby will get out when the time is right, labor is exhausting, do other things like getting ur bag prepare for the hospital, or get the baby things ready , seems to me u are due any time, be calm ! it has to come out sometime, trust me !

Answer 3

Have s*x thats the best or eat spicy foods that worked for me!

Answer 4

Yes, you can. Be careful and listen to your body. Make sure you are drinking a lot of water as you walk. When you are tired though, sit down. The last thing you want is to go into labour already exhausted.  

Answer 5

I walked from morning to early evening when I was 39 weeks pregnant trying to get labor started.  The only thing I got was blisters on my feet.

Your body will go into labor when its ready.  If you're going to walk, take frequent breaks and stay well hydrated.

Answer 6

I know it's hard to wait in the end, but your baby is almost here, and I promise you won't be pregnant forever.  If I were you I'd get a pedicure or go out for Chinese food with your husband.

Answer 7

Yes you can over walk.  Don't tire yourself out so near to labor and don't stress your joints too much.
